The City of Spokane is pleased to announce the opportunity for non-profit organizations to apply for grant funding to support programs and events that honor and celebrate the rich diversity of the City’s cultural communities.

The City has allocated $50,000 and will consider proposals in every cultural discipline and from every area of the City of Spokane for services that take place within the City limits that are scheduled to be held between August 1, 2018 and July 31, 2019.

Funds will be awarded based on a competitive review by a panel of members of the Mayor’s Advisory Council on Multi-Cultural Affairs (MACMA) and representatives of the City’s elected officials.
